Hepatic steatosis-insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in people with HIV at diagnosis: effect of initial antiretroviral therapy
Luisa Montes M, Busca C, Rava M, Bernardino JI, Rivero A, Martín-Carbonero L, Cañas-Ruano E, Ibarra Ugarte S, Galindo MJ, Cabello A, González-García J and
We evaluated the impact of hepatic steatosis-insulin resistance (HS-IR) and liver fibrosis (LF) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) using triglyceride-glucose (TyG) and Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4). The incidence of DM2 was 12.9 [95% confidence interval (CI), 16.9-9.7] and 9.8 (95% CI, 6.9-13.6) per 1000 person-years in HS-IR and LF. The prevalence of HS-IR was significantly lower at 12 and 24 months with TDF + (3TC or FTC) + RPV [hazard ratio (HR) 0.5 [95% CI, 0.3-0.8], P < 0.01 at 12 months; 0.6 [0.4-0.9], P = 0.01 at 24 months].
SARS-CoV-2 cross-sectional serosurvey across three HIV-1 therapeutic clinical trials in Africa
Papot E, Tovar-Sanchez T, Woods J, Thaurignac G, Eriobu N, Borok M, Kaplan R, Avihingsanon A, Azwa I, Grinsztejng B, Kumarasamy N, Sokhela S, Mpoudi-Etame M, Arriaga M, Jacoby S, Matthews GV, Losso MH, Khoo S, Calmy A, Kouanfack C, Ayouba A, Petoumenos K, Venter WDF, Delaporte E, Polizzotto MN and
Data on the impact of COVID-19 in people living with HIV (PWH) are lacking in resource-constrained settings. We utilised existingrandomised clinical trials (RCTs) on antiretroviral therapies (ART) in HIV-1 infection to conduct a SARS-CoV-2 serosurvey, between January and March 2021, while characterising participants' features.

Markers of T-cell dysfunction and not inflammaging predict the waning of humoral responses to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA booster vaccination in people with HIV
Augello M, Bono V, Rovito R, Santoro A, Tincati C and Marchetti G
In this prospective longitudinal study, we evaluated the durability of humoral responses to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA booster vaccination in 93 people with HIV, exploring the possible role of T-cell dysfunction and inflammaging biomarkers in predicting antibody waning. We found that, despite a negligible influence of the inflammaging milieu, low CD4/CD8 ratio and CD4+CD127+ percentage as well as high CD8+CD38+CD45RO+ percentage are associated with faster antibody waning, in turn contributing to our understanding of the determinants of COVID-19 vaccine-elicited immune response in this population.
Impact of smoking habits on cardiovascular and neoplastic events and all-cause death in people living with HIVfrom the STOPSHIV cohort
Socio GV, Ricci E, Piconi S, Squillace N, Maggi P, Orofino G, Altobelli D, Santoro C, Guastavigna M, Menzaghi B, Salomoni E, Di Biagio A, dell'Omo M, Francisci D, Bonfanti P and
The study aimed to assess the impact of smoking exposure on major clinical events (MCE) in a real-life setting of people living with HIV (PWH).
Real-world clinical and economic outcomes from rapid start antiretroviral therapy in HIV: systematic review and meta-analysis
Duong KNC, Schmutz HW, Ben-Umeh KC, Duru EE, Rose N, Trom C, Chaiyakunapruk N and Willis CW
We aimed to synthesize clinical and economic outcomes of rapid start versus non-rapid antiretroviral therapy (ART) in people with HIV (PWH) in real-world settings.
Biomarkers of microbial translocation and generalized inflammation are associated with frailty among people with HIV
Ruderman SA, Hunt PW, Beck-Engeser G, Ambayec G, Willig AL, Saag MS, Napravnik S, Cachay E, Bamford L, Landay A, Drumright LN, Mixson LS, Whitney BM, Nance RM, Kitahata MM, Crane HM, Delaney JA and Hahn AW
Frailty occurs at higher rates and younger ages among people with HIV (PWH) compared to the general population and is often attributed to chronic inflammation and subsequent immune exhaustion. We assessed how inflammatory biomarkers are associated with frailty among PWH.
